MURDER PROPOSALS

murders
🔪 STAB STAB STAB
So, you're contemplating murder. Great! We thoroughly encourage you to act on those feelings! While you're bound to upset another god by eliminating their followers, well, you'll likely earn good favor with whatever god you're already playing for. This is a numbers game, after all. While murder isn't explicitly expected by any one god, there is only one way of reducing the numbers.

If there are individuals who don't show any sign of defecting, it's only a matter of time before the gods, who aren't allowed to interfere in the game directly, start making offers (although these are always offers, never orders). No one will need to look too far for any extra incentive, and all they have to do is ask if they aren't sure. With any luck, you'll all take matters into your own bloodthirsty hands!

All murder proposals must be submitted no later than Tuesday at 12PM PST so we can contact all relevant parties and make arrangements for the rest of the week! We want to be sure that everyone has enough time to plan.

If you're committing to a murder, whether or not we approached you or not, please fill out the form below and submit it as a response to this post. All comments will be screened.

Name: Your name.
Character name: Who you're playing.
Contact: Your plurk and discord.
Planned Victim(s): Who will soon be dead.

Murder Plot: The general gist of your plot.

Evidence: The basic evidence you plan to leave behind.

Other: Anything else!


Finally, don't worry about making your murder plot or evidence too specific at this stage. You'll have time to discuss that with your victim(s) and mods directly, as you never know when something unexpected my occur. Due to everyone's chosen powers, some victims may prove to be more hardy than they appear.
A NOTE ON LOGISTICS
Any participant in the war whose statue is still standing within the temple's main hall is eligible to be chosen as a victim. You are welcome to attempt to target more than one potential victim; however, if we have a high volume of murder proposals in a given week we may ask you to dial it back a notch.

In the event that we have no murder proposals in a given week, we will be approaching people who indicated on their application that they are willing to be called upon to kill should the need arise. Please remember that this will be done on an OOC rather than an IC basis; we will gladly work with you to come up with some IC motivation for them to kill, short of the gods saying "you must do it".

We will allow conditional murder proposals. In this case, you can indicate a sequence of events that would compel your character to kill, rather than a specific victim (for example, a character being inclined to go on a killing spree should their close CR be killed or executed, someone using the "Lie Detection" power being inclined to kill someone if they catch them in a lie, someone using "All Nighter" encountering someone else out after curfew, or so on). Please be advised that if you fill out this sort of murder proposal there are no take-backs; if the scenario you indicate occurs, then at least one character must die - your character can murder the person who triggered it, or die trying, depending on how you and the other participant plot it out.
